When Leslie Klinger edited his New Annotated H. P. Lovecraft, he selected stories that he felt were in Lovecraft's Arkham/Cthulhu cycle. That book of Lovecraft's excellent fiction has prov'd enormously popular, and thus:

I'm very pleased to hear from my publisher Liveright/Norton that New Annotated H. P. Lovecraft is doing very well--so well that they'd like me to do a second volume, tentatively titled NEW ANNOTATED H. P. LOVECRAFT: BEYOND THE MYTHOS. Although the first volume contained 22 stories, we omitted a number of great tales simply to avoid making the book too expensive. As a result, terrific stories like "The Outsider," "The Rats in the Walls," "The Music of Erich Zann," "The Shunned House," and the novel The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath had to be left out of volume 1. The second volume will have another 23 stories, including some little-known gems like "Ex Oblivione" as well as other famous tales. . . . I'll also be working with my friend S. T. Joshi to use the most accurate text possible, based on his brilliant Variorum edition.

Ye 2nd volume won't be publish'd until probably late 2017 or early 2018.STORIES SELECTEDThe TombPolarisTransition of Juan RomeroThe Doom that Came to SarnathEx OblivioneThe Terrible Old ManFacts Concerning the Late Arthur Jermyn and His FamilyThe Cats of UltharCelephaisThe TempleThe OutsiderThe Other GodsThe Music of Erich ZannThe Quest of IranonThe Lurking FearThe Rats in the WallsThe Shunned HouseThe Horror at Red HookHeCool AirThe Strange High House in the MistPickman's ModelThe Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath
